Nová zelená úsporám funds apartment buildings past 2026. Put automation and metering into the same renovation.
The New Green Savings programme (Nová zelená úsporám) explicitly covers apartment buildings, with at least EUR 1.5 billion allocated and funding continuity secured beyond 2026 as the programme moves from EU Recovery funds to emissions-trading revenue. In parallel, Act No. 406/2000 Coll. and Decree No. 38/2022 Coll. have required building automation in large non-residential buildings since 1 January 2025. Bisly fits both, configured on site.

automation duty in force for non-residential buildings above 290 kW
What the programme and the law ask for
New Green Savings co-finances the energy renovation of apartment buildings, and the measured performance of the renovated building is what the programme is paying for. Metering, monitoring and control are what make that performance visible and defensible after the works are complete.
For non-residential buildings above 290 kW, Act No. 406/2000 Coll. with Decree No. 38/2022 Coll. has required a building automation and control system since 1 January 2025. There is a direct offset: a compliant system removes the statutory recurring heating-system inspection duty, a cost saving you can put straight into the business case.
Who this is for
- Owners' associations (SVJ), housing cooperatives and municipal housing companies renovating apartment buildings with programme support
- Institutional landlords: Heimstaden alone operates around 40,000 homes in Czechia, the largest single residential portfolio in Central Europe
- Owners of non-residential buildings above 290 kW who must meet the automation duty and can drop the heating-inspection cost
- Public bodies delivering major projects under the national BIM mandate
Configured, not programmed.
Bisly removes the engineering step from building automation. The design goes into a configurator, the installer follows the app on site, and the building comes up configured and documented. Same functions, same standards, a fraction of the specialist hours.
What that means for your building
Speed and certainty
The engineering hours come out of the project, so the price and the schedule stop moving. Fewer specialist hours, shorter commissioning, fewer return visits.
One system for the whole building
HVAC, lighting, shading, access and metering in one system, with third-party equipment integrated at gateway level. The same configuration repeats on the next site.
Compliant and measured on handover day
An EN ISO 52120-1 BMS with the continuous monitoring, logging and reporting the regulation asks for. The building meets its obligation when it opens, not in a retrofit three years later.
Why Czechia fits a repeatable package
36.4% of Czechs live in buildings of ten or more units, district heating capacity stands at 37.9 GW thermal, and apartment prices around EUR 5,000 per m² make every renovation a serious capital decision. Most Central European programmes run out of money in 2026. This one does not.
A renovation programme that repeats across dozens of blocks is a procurement decision, not a technology one. One automation and metering package, defined once per building type and commissioned by a local electrical contractor from the app, is what makes it deliverable at that scale.
Automation, metering and BMS in one renovation
Bisly delivers heating, ventilation, lighting, shading, access and metering in one system, with an EN ISO 52120-1 BMS at building level. In an apartment block that means room control and heat cost allocation per flat, substation control for the building, and one report for the owner, the SVJ board or the programme auditor.
The design goes into a configurator, the installer follows the app on site, and the building comes up configured and documented. Fewer specialist hours is what keeps the package inside a subsidised renovation budget, and it is why the same package can be repeated on the next building.

A phased path, starting with one building
You do not have to decide on a portfolio programme to discharge the obligation. Start with the building the deadline applies to.

Readiness assessment
We check what applies to your building, by which date, and what the system must be able to do. You get a written answer, not a brochure.
- 02
Metering and monitoring first
Continuous monitoring, logging, benchmarking and loss detection are the core of the requirement. A small decision that creates the measured baseline for everything after it.
- 03
Control where the numbers say it pays
Heating, ventilation, lighting and shading control are added building by building, configured on site by your installer rather than programmed by a specialist.
